Agricultural waste can be a source of energy, fertilizer, and other inputs at farm and industrial levels. Handling and managing agricultural waste are challenging tasks worldwide, especially in the context of environmental pollution control and sustainable agriculture. Thus, efficient management in terms of reuse, recycling, and reduction of agricultural waste is principally needed not only for the green economy but also for farmers' profitability. Agricultural Waste - New Insights provides an understanding of agricultural waste production and management, discussing crop residue, biodegradables, biomass, composting and vermiculture, agricultural waste economics, air pollution, environmental safety, waste management and handling, on-farm waste reuse, and agricultural waste value addition. It provides key aspects of emerging technologies and their applications in the domain of agriculture waste management.

"This book will emphasize the generation of agricultural waste and provide insight into various options in managing the waste, including composting, vermicomposting to form manure, and biogas generation. This is a step towards sustainable development and creating a greener planet. Recovery of resources from agricultural waste is a step towards the management of agricultural waste in a sustainable manner and reducing burden on the resources of the earth. Such measures are a part of recycling and circular economy where waste from one sector is converted to another useful product in the form of bio fertilizers and energy. The wastes produced are generally left in the fields or are burned which further leads to air and land pollution. If managed properly, this problem and its manifestation such as smog generation which is an emerging environmental issue, can be tackled. Nutrient recovery or energy recovery from this waste will also be helpful in solving the energy crisis to some extent. The runoff from fields is a source of water pollution and eutrophication. If the resource recovery concept is followed it will create a solution of tackling the waste at the source of generation."--
